Way to Accelerate Kids / Adults Learning!!!

Dear Learner,
Would you like to accelerate your learning capability?
Are you curious to know?

Yup!!!
In order to accelerate kids or adults learning, in this article I am providing few tips related to lifestyle and technology utilization. 

Fixed Mindset? (or) Growth Mindset?

•Stanford psychologist Carol Dweck proposes that these two mindsets shapes our life

•A “fixed mindset” assumes that our character, intelligence, and creative ability are static givens which we can’t change in any meaningful way

•A “growth mindset” assumes that our character, intelligence and creativity are a springboard for growth and for stretching our existing abilities

 

Learning Zone

1. While learning or listening to any lecture, if you feel comfortable that signifies that your brain have got neuro-plasticity or neuro-synapses (in simple terms you know things already) no learning or growth in it.                                      "Come out of comfort zone for the real growth"
2. While learning the moment you feel "Uneasy" that shows there are few things related to that particular  topic you are familiar many things you are unfamiliar. There is an incremental growth happening in you.
3. While learning if you feel "Anxiety & Uncertainty", there is an enormous or potential growth for you.
4. If you move to "The Unknown" zone, the  real discovery or invention could be carried out by you.

Study Tips
